I had one of these (or very very similar) - it took me back to one-finger 
typing. The keys were very spongy and required a fair bit of accurate pressure 
to actuate them. The key labels wore off very quicky. It was impossible to 
keep free of dust and grease which over time led to the keys perishing ... A 
ZX80 keyboard was an order of magnitude better!
